Sorry to hear you're going thru such a rough time. Prayers for you and the family for strength thru these difficult times. Big virtual hug, you're the best. ❤

Mitch M

I’m so sorry, Dakara. Take your time and be patient with yourself. We’ll be here whenever you’re ready.

Collinson

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I had a similar thing with my Nan last year. I support you because I enjoy your content and have subbed to your patreon to support you during both the good and hard times. I'm more than okay with waiting for reactions until you are in a better place. My thoughts go to you and your family. Edit - Just a suggestion if you want to watch Buffy to cheer yourself up maybe rewatch some of your favourite episodes you’ve already reacted to so don’t feel pressure to make a video.

Purple Nurple

Love you Dakara! Take as much time as you need.

Koz

I'm sorry that you're going through so much right now, and especially for your grandfather. I hope things turn out far better than you can imagine.

Bart Aansorgh

Take the time you need Dakara. I've been in burnout land, its not a fun place to be so take the time you need for yourself. If you wanna do an offstream hangout with people just let us know on discord. perhaps that guitar thing one time (only if you want ofcourse). If streaming helps you mentally but you dont want to do it on twitch, you can also do a discord stream. Great that you're getting the help you need. And even though i know you have people you can talk to, if you ever need/want to some more, even if it is just to rant just shout at me :). Take you're time, i'll sitll be here ;)

Paul Thomas-Humphreys

Like others have said, life stuff always comes first. Take your time and come back when you’re ready x

Kelsey Pruett

I had to go down in my pledge to you awhile ago because of financial difficulties but I still wanted to help support you and your content and will continue to do so while you take your time away. Don't worry about us right now (easier said than done, I know) and spend this time focusing on your mental health and your family. They need you more than we do at the moment. ❤ You and your fam are in my thoughts. 🙂

Gina St Phillips

Please take care of yourself first, your family second, and put us last right now. Sometimes that is how it has to be. You are supported.

Kirsten (Heavenli24)

So sorry to hear this, Dakara - my thoughts are with you and your family. It's been a tough year for me as well, so I totally get it. Take all the time you need for yourself. I don't think any of us would want you to force yourself to put out reactions for us when you're dealing with so much in your personal life.

Ian

I'm so so sorry dak I'm heartbroken you're going through such a hard time , my thoughts are prayers are with you and your family it's hard to sum up in words how awful this is I pray for your grandfather 💜 you didn't have to do this video and I know it must have been so difficult but that just shows how truly caring and wonderful person you are take whatever time you need however long I for one will always be here to support you and your channel 💙 anything you need or anything I can do im just a message away , sending massive hugs to you and your family 🫂

PhilM

Personal stuff is hard & working through it can burn you out and exacerbate the situation. Take your time and look after yourself. Good luck...

Michael Abberton

I am very sorry for your situation, and you should take all the time you need to take care of yourself and your family. As others have already said, we will be here when you are ready again.

Erica Schaefer

Please take care of yourself and your family and know we are wishing you the best.

Asmos

So sorry to hear. It's OK to be a mess sometimes, we all are. Take care of yourself and your family, don't worry about missing some uploads.

Roy Bullough

Take the time you need to get back to your bubbly self, Dakara. I wish you strength to get through the trying times.

Jon Dub

I am sorry to hear of your troubles hon. Just remember to look after yourself and your family. We will be here for you when you are ready to get back on the horse. Take whatever time you need to get yourself back in the right mindset. I cant speak for everyone, but I will never regret being your patron. You do what you need to do xxx

Abby

Giving you all my love. Take care.

Audra Foxgrove

💜 Take the time you need. You’re a person, not just a content creator. Get all the rest you can, drink lots of water, remember to breathe, and rewatch things that bring you comfort without the pressure of being on camera. Sending all my well-wishes.

Celia Fox

Take care of yourself, Dakara. As Jon Dub said, I also will never regret following you on Patreon. I still re-watch all my favourite Lucifer posts and have no intention of stopping yet. You do what you need to do, we'll still be here. xxx

James B.

Do what you need to do. You have oodles of content that you've already uploaded. There's plenty to tide people over.

Shaun Houghton

Breathe. Relax. We get it. We want to share your experiences while watching these shows. Right now is not the time for that. Take the time to do what you need to, don't feel rushed by any obligation you feel to us. A couple of persons may get upset, those of us here that still have a pulse, shall be happy to wait. This is a time for family and self, everything else can wait. Already missing you, see you when you return.

PaulC

Look after yourself Dak, and take whatever time you need.

Donald Mellen

Take all the time you need in this trying time. Love your reactions, and you are definitely worth the wait.

Erika Wood

I'm very sorry you are going through so much. Looking after yourself is so important. Everything else can wait. ✨️

Corey

Take care of yourself! I'm hoping the best for you. As much as I'm wanting you to start Buffy season 5 I want you to enjoy it with us as well so happy to wait. Like others have said I also just watch some of your old reactions haha. I even rewatched Dopplegangland last night. I love how much you love this show like the rest of us have all these years. Take care love and see you soon.

Darrell Palmer

You are one of my favorite Buffy reactors and will be worth the wait. Just know that you have a community that cares about you here on Patreon and you are not alone.

megsyjayner

I'm so sorry you're going through this! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! Take care of yourself and them. We all love you and just want the best for you so take care of yourself and don't worry we'll be here whenever you're ready to come back if you want to. I hope things get better

David Guin

I am so sorry. Someday (if I get very drunk) maybe I will tell you about my life. For now, just know that death is a part of life, but it is never pretty. Right now, you should only be concerned with caring for yourself and your family. We will still be here when you come out the other side of this.

Graham Nickless

No need to apologise, your family and mental health must always come first. I completely understand and I think that you're doing the right thing. Take care of yourself and know that you will come through this and be stronger, even if that seems hard to believe right now. Happy to wait until you're back. Wishing you all the best.

Michael R

Take as long as you need, you are always the first priority.

Dave Ford

Well, can't any say anything more that your family comes first and I'll certainly be here when you're able to come back. The explanation is appreciated. And, while I appreciate you take your work seriously, you're quite right that it'd suffer if you tried to 'fake' it while the other stuff is going on. Take your time and keep well.

Mark Sahba

You will hear this a lot, but please do what you need to do to take care of yourself. You family; yourself takes priority. Sorry you have this hard time to pass through, but you well. Our thoughts are with you.

R. Chang

I always feel so weird when content creators clearly feel guilty for not creating content 24/7. Listen, I know that our appetite for content is without end, but I never want anybody that I support to feel like they can't take time off to deal with personal stuff or a mental health break or even just to have fun. If you need time off, take some time off. We'll still be here when you get back.

Jim Greer

Hi Dakara , watching this video broke my heart . As others have said , take all the time you need & I personally will continue to subscribe to your patreon and wait for you to come back as the person we all love .xx

Johann Ludwig

I’m staying ✋. Coincidentally my yearly subscription is about to expire but I will happily renew it. Please, PLEASE take care of yourself and your close ones. See you again online soon I hope, because I’m going to miss your weekly updates (I was about to send you a dm for the first time this week to thank you because I had a rough time at work and watching your videos saved me from a nervous breakdown! 🤷‍♂️🙃). But I can only appreciate your work if I know that you are in a good place (see what I did there?). I can only repeat myself, but as far as I’m concerned, my only priority as a Patreon and a fan is your well-being. So, again, take all the time you need. I hope I could do more to help you go through this. As Chandler would say, “I’m not great at giving advice. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?” but I can offer you my full support. And that’s what I’ll do. Take care Dakara!

Butterfleaz

I’m so sorry Dak ❤️ what you are going through is really hard, and I never wanted more to give you a hug through my screen than right now ❤️ Please, just take care of yourself, we are not going anywhere ❤️❤️

Dave Ford

Oh, as for Buffy - just wait. It's a season break - take it! And tell anyone who complains that it's exactly what it is. It absolutely won't hurt your enjoyment of the show in the slightest.

Krisan Seeley

I can't imagine anyone being upset at you for needing to do what you have to when you are having a hard time in your life. I certainly understand as I lost both my father and my father-in-law this summer within a couple weeks of each other. While they were in the last few weeks and days it was VERY hard to concentrate on work and think about anything else but them. Take the time you need. I'm sure we will be here when you are ready. I love watching your reactions! It's like watching my favorite shows with a best friend. :)

Nicholas Corgan

I'm sorry you're dealing with this, I understand the pain. I'm sure I speak for so many people here when I say take care of yourself, whatever that ends up being. We'll be here when you're ready.

Randy

You and your family are in my thoughts. Take as much time as you need.

Leticia

i dont know whats going on but just know youre in my thoughts and prayers and take the time you need.. we will be here for you no matter what

Ashley

Really sorry to hear about everything you're going through right now Dak. Take the time you need to rest your mind. I'll be thinking of you and your family ❤

DM DC

Hey Dakara. Saw the video. I say take all the time you need. Dean would say family comes first, and I agree, and would say the same. Be there for your family. And know that you are in our thoughts. Take care.

ecuuuuu

Dakara, I'm sorry to hear that you're having such a rough time. Take however long you need. We'll still be here when you get back. Don't feel pressured to hurry back before you're ready. We subscribed because we love watching your genuine reactions, and you should never feel obligated to fake how you're feeling so you can entertain us. Your health is important, both physical and mental, so take care of yourself. We are all thinking about you in this time.

Neil Silverman

Oh my goodness, Dakara, I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. Sending you so much love and hugs and best wishes. Please don't feel like you have to force yourself to put out content right now or slap on a fake smile and perform. I don't think anyone wants that and more importantly, it wouldn't be fair to yourself. You need time to deal with life's difficulties, and sometimes those get in the way. That's ok. I know I'll still be here whenever you feel like you're ready to return, and I'm sure most of the rest of us will be too.

x_Rhi_x

Sending love and hugs. I'm so sorry to hear you're going through a crappy time dak. Will be here whenever you're ready to come back!

Michele

I'm so sorry things are so rough. Imagine the biggest hug ever coming your way across the pond! I think you should be able to take a leave from this job just like any other job. I'll still be here. I'm sure a bunch of your other long timers will too. I imagine you're more needed by your family right now. Don't try to take on too much of the load though. As I suspect you usually do. Let me know if there's anything I can do. If you do just want to do some venting and just have someone to talk to we can always to a selective stream. Either on twitch or discord.

Michele

Maybe you could rewatch Lucifer. Something fun and easy. Or, start a rewatch of SPN. A comfort show.

Chard

It's never easy confronting the possibility or inevitability of losing a loved one, especially a parent or grandparent. Try to focus on the life they led and your memories with them. It doesn't make the pain or sadness go away but you'd be surprised how many smiles will cross your face in the process as you remember all the good times you spent with them. Hang in there. We'll all be praying for you and your family.

denmaroca 2

I can't improve on what people have said above, so will just wait patiently until the next reaction. Take care.

Jon Freezin-Rain

Take what comfort you can in knowing you bring brightness to a community . Take what you need in the time that you need.

Art_by_Akane

I am not on your Patreon for too long (a year and a half maybe), but I grew to really like you and your reactions. I understand, that you're in a hard spot right now. Please, think about you're well beeing first. I'm sure that most (if not everyone) in your community understand your situation. I'm not gonna leave you now, all I want for you is to find a way to get through that situation you're in. I wish you all the best, as well for your Grandpa. Please, take care of yourself. My thoughts are with you.

Nicole

My thoughts and prayers, for what they are worth, are with you and your grandfather during this tough time. Take all the time you need and we’ll be here when you are ready!

Julian Welton

You have nothing to apologize for! Take your time. You're human and you're going through something really tough right now. Worry about yourself and your family. This will all still be here when you're ready.

John

That is a great suggestion. :) I just did that as well during a recent struggle, only it was with a couple of feel-good Supernatural episodes. Fan Fiction + Scoobynatural.

Thomas Maes

no need to apologize. Take the time you need. Hug

Parker Kelly

only just got your patreon (i’m veihn Q on youtube) but i hope you’re doing well, and life gets better for you. it’s very understandable it can get hard sometimes, wishing you well❤️

DakaraJayne
